Description

[0002] The statements in this section merely provide background information related to the present application and do not necessarily constitute the prior art.
[0003] The liquid crystal writing board is an important application in the field of liquid crystals, but the single color of writing and the limitation of the preparation method greatly restrict its application environment.
[0004] The inventor found that the traditional writing board is obtained by rolling a film material of a certain thickness, and then using ultraviolet light for polymerization. One of the defects of this method is that when there are uneven parts in the film material, it is difficult to homogenize them in some way, and only the part can be removed, which increases the preparation cost and wastes resources. In addition, due to the design of the layer structure, the traditional writing board only has one color of writing, and the single color greatly hinders its application range. SUMMARY
